It depends on the amount of data you load in.  The more data and displays
you have, the more memory will be required.  Are you experiencing 
crashes on this machine?  If so, could you provide more information
about the symptoms of the crash (lockup, error message, etc) and
whether you are running IDV through WebStart or from the
InstallAnywhere installers.
